Setup
Connect Lodekeep to your AI
Lodekeep is a remote connector, so Claude talks to it directly. It works on Claude for web, desktop, and mobile. There is nothing to install and no API key to copy. The whole thing takes under a minute.
Your connector URL (you will paste this into Claude):
https://lodekeep.com/mcpCreate your Lodekeep account
Sign up at lodekeep.com. Use the same email you will sign in with when Claude asks you to authorize. If you already have an account, skip ahead.
Open Claude's connector settings
In Claude on the web (claude.ai) or the Claude desktop app, go to Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
Add the connector
Fill in exactly two fields:
- Name: Lodekeep
- Remote MCP server URL:
https://lodekeep.com/mcp
Leave the advanced fields blank. If you see optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret fields, leave them empty. Lodekeep registers Claude automatically, so you do not need them. Then click Add.Sign in and approve
Claude opens a Lodekeep page. If you are not already signed in, sign in with the email and password from step 1. You will see a consent screen that says “Claude wants to access your Lodekeep memories.” Click Approve. Claude returns to the connector settings, now connected.
Try it
In any Claude conversation, say “remember: we use tabs, not spaces.” Then, in a new conversation, ask “what are my formatting preferences?” Claude will use Lodekeep to recall it. That is it, you are done.
Good to know
- No client ID or secret. Lodekeep uses OAuth with dynamic client registration, so Claude registers itself. The optional client ID and client secret fields stay empty.
- You choose what Claude remembers. Only projects you have curated (marked as included) in your dashboard are searchable. New projects start private until you include them.
- Disconnect any time.Revoke Claude's access from Settings → Connected apps. Revoking takes effect immediately.
- Prefer Claude Code or a self-host bridge? The command-line install (a revocable API key) lives on your welcome page.
Connect other AI apps
Lodekeep is a standard MCP server, so other AI clients can use the same memory. Sign in with the same Lodekeep email on every app: they all read and write one memory, so a note you save in Claude is instantly searchable in ChatGPT, and the other way around.
ChatGPT▾
Needs a paid plan (Plus, Pro, Team, or Enterprise) with Developer Mode on. Free ChatGPT cannot add custom connectors.
Go to Settings → Connectors → Advanced, turn on Developer Mode, then choose Add custom connector. Paste https://lodekeep.com/mcp, leave any client ID / secret blank, then sign in and approve. ChatGPT uses OAuth 2.1 with dynamic registration, which Lodekeep handles for you.
Grok (xAI)▾
Needs a SuperGrok or X Premium+ subscription.
In Grok's Connectors settings, choose New Connector → Custom, enter the server URL https://lodekeep.com/mcp, and complete the sign-in. Grok connects to the hosted URL directly, nothing to install.
Gemini▾
Use the Gemini CLI. The Gemini web and mobile app cannot add custom MCP connectors yet.
Google's consumer Gemini app has no custom-connector setting, so connect through the Gemini CLI instead. One command wires it up:
npx lodekeep connect --client geminiRun npx lodekeep connect once first if you have not signed in on this machine.
Cursor▾
Any Cursor plan. Two steps: store your key once, then add one block to a config file.
First, sign in once on this machine. This saves your key to ~/.lodekeep/config.json, so it never goes in the Cursor file:
npx lodekeep connectThen open ~/.cursor/mcp.json and add the lodekeep entry. If the file already has other servers, keep them and add this one alongside:
{
"mcpServers": {
"lodekeep": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "lodekeep", "serve"]
}
}
}Restart Cursor so it picks the server up. Ask it “what do you remember about me?” to check it is connected.
Codex, Claude Code, and other CLIs▾
Local bridge, no paid plan needed.
The installer merges Lodekeep into each client's config without touching your other settings:
npx lodekeep connect --client codexFull per-client steps, including by-hand config, live on your welcome page.
